J. E. Benton Flays Scheme a
Commission Hearing.
VALUES CALLED UNTRUE
"Book Accounts" of Lines Declared
'Worthless as an Index to
Standing of. Property.
"WASHINGTON, . Marc 23. Solid
alignment of state railroad coramls
doners, representing the public,
airainst consideration of the "unre
liable" Investment accounts of the
roads for valuation purposes devel
oped today before the interstate com
merce commission, which is holding
hearings to determine the basis of
payment of the standard dividend un
der the transportation act.
Insisting that the "book accounts'
of the roads were worthless as an
Index to the values of the properties.
John K. Benton, of the Association
ot State Kailroad commissioners,
rharply criticised the argument ad
vanced by the carrier that any vaiu
at ion of the roads found to be less
than the aggregate accounts would
he a blow to the financial centers of
the world.
Shocking Tainga Exposed.
"Since when has this commission
rendered Its Judgment with Its face
toward Wall street V he asked. "Since
when has it disregarded the law and
the facts to cover up the rottenness
f any situation it came upon in the
performance of its duty? It Has Here
tofore discovered and exposed many
shocking things, but the country still
lives and the financial centers are
Etill Intact"
All the elements of value must be
taken into consideration. Benton
contended, but the investment ac
counts of the roads are not to be re
Carded as evidence.
"Congress has not given you dis
cretion." he told the commission, "if
you know the true investment cost
of the Chicago and Alton from your
valuation investigations, to shut your
eyes to that element and consider its
wickedly water-soaked investment
account."
Representatives of the shippers
generally concurred In the proposals
of the carriers that the book accounts
be considered, but advised that they
be checked .In the light of thejither
, information avauaDie.
Dilemma In Proapect.
Expressing themselves as more con
cerned with the development of trans
portation facilities to meet the needs
of the country than in -the matter of
rates, the shippers confined their rec
ommendation mainly to the question
of grouping of the roads for rate
fixing purposes.
"Unless the railroads are deprived
of the occasion to yell 'poverty,' as
they have done In the past, the only
solution Is government ownership,"
was the argument of Charles E. Cot
terlll of the Southern Traffic league
in. favor of giving the railroads re
turns sufficient to handle adequately
the business of the country. Property
investment accounts, he said, might
come the closest to forming a basis
for a preliminary valuation.
The majority of the shippers fa
vored the continuation of the com
mission's established grouping of the
railroads on the grounds that adjust
ment should be effected with least
disturbance to existing rate returns.
Smaller division. It was argued, made
for less flexibility.
ford will not resign, and If' the board
still refuses to dismiss him, an elec
tion be held to allow the voters of
desire the retention, of. the super Lni
tendent.
The meeting was; attended by over
a -thousand citizens. S. M. Calkins,
member of the school board, presented
the board's side of the controversy
between the teachers and the admin
istration and a number of the teach
er were heard.
Members of the board declare they
will remain firm In their decision. to
retain Mr. Rutherford. The teachers
are Just as firm in declaring they
will not serve under him. Antici
pating that the superintendent will
remain, a number of the teachers have
already obtained other positions.

Three Youngsters ot Ten, Mile
; Save $525 in Three .Years. "
ROSEBURG, Or., March 23; (Spe
cial.) Bessie, Wane and Irwin Brelt
enbutcher, three youngsters of the
eighth grade at Ten Mile are believed
to have set a record in thrift for the
entire state. In three years these
children .have saved an aggregate qf
$525. all of which is Invested in- sav
ings certificates.
The sum represents money earned
at various work found in the neigh
borhood or acquired from products
raised by themselves.
Special Boards Provided.
Special boards are to be set up for
the Kanawha, Paint Qreek and Calvin
Creek fields, for district No. 12, Illi
nois; also for the state of Washing
ton, .each commission to handle spe
cific local conditions.
V Other recommendations by the ma
jority lay strea upon the necessity
Tor buying and storing coal for win
ter use during the summer months.
State and' federal Institutions and
departments are urged to take, this
action as well as householders, public
utility corporations and private con
cerns. Railroads are, asked to co-operate
in' the work and the Interstate
commerce commission Is urged to aid
in --the solution of the transportation
problem.
The report urged the federal reserve
board to permit reserve banks to
favor, as eligible for rediscount paper
drawn against coal in storage.
. Better Conditions I rged.
Control of car distribution among I
mines to the end that no particular
mine or mines receive preference Is
recommended, as well as abolishment
of practice whereby purchasing agents
of carriers can use company control
over car supply to force down the
price of railway fuel. The Interstate
commerce commission would have
jurisdiction over these details. -
In connection with mine labor, the
report says camp and housing condi
tions for miners should be improved
and approval of the introduction of
labor saving machinery is expressed.
Advance of miners pay is discouraged,
but if made advances should be with
out discount, directly or Indirectly.
The following is included In the
report:
Public Production Sought.
In submitting this report particu
lar attention is called to the fact that
herein every effort has been made for
the protection of the public, not only
for the period under which this pro
tection-can be guaranteed by the ex
ecutive under thepowers granted him
by the Lever act, but it has been our
effort to go into the underlying
cause for high costs and to offer
some remedy therefor this. In ' order
that in the future, .when the govern
ment relaxes its control over prices,
there may be a continuing force at
work In the public Interest.
"We believe it is obvious that un
less some changes can be made to
ward the end of reducing costs in coal
production and distribution, no act of
congress, no order of the executive,
nor any otner regulation by consti
tuted authority can in the end provide
against the continuing high costs-
Proper Basis Advocated.
"It Is for this. reason that we be
lieve that this- "Industry should be
placed upon the proper basis for more
continuous and thus more economical
production and distribution with the
result that the. cost of coal to the
neoDle will be reduced, i "
The principal difference p'et'ween the
majority and minority reports .was on
the matter of hours of work. Com
missioners Robinson and Peale recom
mended retention of the present
eight-hour day,but Commissioner
White agreed to such hours only until
A aril 1, 1921. After that date, Mr.
White held, the maximum hours for
miners would .not exceed eight hours
underground a day nor more than six
days a week. The miners demanded
a six-hour day and1 a five day week.
Hoapstone Allowance Made.
. An allowance of two cents a ton
fori the handling of soapstone was
recommended by Mr. White, who also
refused to accept the majority view
that car pushing was a natural condi
tion in the Industry.
In submitting his report Mr. White
said he was guided in preparing his
recommendations by a single mandate
which was that "healthy operation of
the industry in the service of the pub
lic is the end sought" j
The - majority of the commission
said the wage advance to tonnage
workers, after this award', would
amount to SS per cent since 1913,
while the advance of day men would
average 111 per cent and that these
advances granted the miners an in
crease in wages larger than the per
centage of increase in the cost of liv
ing submitted by their representa
tives. Old Statu la Restored.
The president restored the . fuel
situation, so far as bituminous is
concerned, to the status existing
prior to November 1, when the bi
tuminous miners went out in a nation-wide
strike. .
The executive order, however, does
not affoct the. tidewater coal ex
change, which was re-estaOlished i
February 2n and which controls ex
port of coal, v . j . . .
President Lewis of the United Mine
Dose, and we are reaay to enter a
joint conference with the operators
to consummate an agreement before
AdHI 1.
"The miners asked the -commission
to establish a number of Vital re
forms in the eoal mining Industry,
affecting their? living and working
conditions. But the report of the ma
jority does not grant these reforms,
and in this the mine workers will
be keenly disappointed. On the other
hand, the majority of tne commission
went beyond the issues and questions
that were In controversy prior to the
creation of the commission and pre
sumed to decide matters that were
not Involved in the original case."
Big Demand Recognised.
"I am aware,", said the president In
issuing the order, "that at present as
a result of the shortage created Dy
the coal strike and of the consequent
interference with transportation and
as a result also of the exceptionally
unfavorable winter, the demand for
coal continues active. I desire to im
press upon the coal operators the ex
treme ImDortance not only ot tneir
complying to the fullest extent with
the laws against combinations in re
straint of trade and against profit
eering, but also of their exerting
themselves" affirmatively to prevent
exacting of unreasonable prices for
coal.
"I am eure the public fully appre
elates - the desirability, where prac
ticable, of leaving commercial trans
actions untrammeied, but at the same
time I am satisfied the public will
find "ways to protect itself if such a
liberal policy shall appear to result
in unreasonably high prices.
-Question Held Unlikely.
The president said he assumed that
neither party would raise any quea-
tlon-and that he was sure that no
question could properly be." raised as
to the binding character of the award
by the majority of the commission
notwithstanding the fact that it was
not unanimous.
. ?The president said there-was no
provision of law fixing; new coal
prices for peace-time purposes and
that "unless and until some grave
emergency shall arise, which In my
judgment has a relation to the emergency-purposes
of the Lever act, I
would, not feel justified In fixing coal
prices with reference to future con
ditions of production-." .
